Bowling Green, KY – The Bowling Green girls’ soccer team secured their second consecutive District 14 title with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Greenwood on October 8, 2025. The championship match, held at Bowling Green Junior High School, was a tightly contested affair that was ultimately decided in penalty kicks after regulation and overtime play ended scoreless.
Junior goalkeeper Ella Wiesbrook was instrumental in the victory, making seven saves during regulation and successfully stopping one penalty kick by diving to deflect the shot. With the win, Bowling Green improved their season record to 12-6 and demonstrated resilience and determination on the field.
The match’s lack of scoring put additional pressure on both teams, with Bowling Green only managing one shot on goal in the first half from Mia Greenwell.

In the second half, Greenwood attempted five shots, one of which hit the crossbar, but could not find the back of the net.
Bowling Green added two more shots on goal in the second half, including a free kick attempt by Zippi Willgruber. Given the scoreless tie after both regulation and two overtime periods, the match progressed to a penalty kick shootout. During the shootouts, Bowling Green’s Willgruber, Reagan Wheeler, and Piper Boyd successfully converted their shots. Karson Lee and Caroline Drexel netted goals for Greenwood; however, Wiesbrook’s pivotal save in the third round proved critical to Bowling Green’s success.
